American actress Zendaya admitted that she made a mistake during her first day on the set of the film "Odyssey" by renowned director Christopher Nolan. According to the actress, her mouth literally froze because the filming took place in cold weather conditions. This was reported by The Hollywood Reporter, as conveyed by UNN.

According to the publication, the actress was working on the director Christopher Nolan's new film, where she plays the Greek goddess Athena, but on her first working day on the set, she got somewhat nervous.
"The thing is, I had my own lines, and I wanted to learn them perfectly. I think I psyched myself out a bit," Zendaya explained.
Additionally, the actress worked in the cold, which also complicated the work.
"It was especially cold... It was in Iceland. My mouth just froze. Oh, nothing comes out. My mouth just won't move. Literally. It just came out as something like: 'Bla-bla-bla.' So awkward," the actress recounted.
However, despite the difficulties, Zendaya noted that she was glad to work on the project alongside people she had long admired.
"But I will say that just showing up in such a situation... It is such a pleasure and a gift to be able to share these moments with people you have admired for so long. Part of you has to detach to some extent. Okay, focus; we are working. But I was so moved and excited to be there, and I wanted to do my job as best as I could," Zendaya emphasized.
Addendum
In the film "Odyssey," based on Homer's ancient Greek poem, Zendaya plays the Greek goddess Athena. The film tells the story of King Odysseus's dangerous journey back to Ithaca after the Trojan War, including battles with mythical creatures, during which he tries to reunite with his wife Penelope and son Telemachus.
